I love this album. I listened to Tweez before I got it, so I already liked Slint, but when I listened to this it blew me away - the melodies, time signatures, incredible tension building, the whole thing is a sustained aural orgasm.
It feels like an incredibly short album, but each of the six tracks is over five minutes - not many bands can hold my attention that well for eight minutes like Slint does on Washer.
